Nov. 2014 This week I got an unexpected health diagnosis. It kind of knocked my socks off. It also took away my ability to make beads anymore. So I am changing my blog. I am sure I will write about beads sometimes. I have a whole studio to part with, but I have health issues that are much more important and I want to share my thoughts and challenges on this blog. I hope you will come along with me and share your words of wisdom or encouragement.

CHAOS

This is what am doing next Sunday and if you live in or around the Louisville area, you're invited. I love to do bead shows, but getting ready is well, just general chaos. Here is a picture of my work area, and this was taken a week ago, it's much worse now.

I wish I was one of those neat and tidy people, but I'm not. I work much better under pressure. Tomorrow, or maybe the next day, I'll show you some of the things I've made for the show....if I can find them :)

About Me

I am a retired registered nurse who began making beads in 1999. Before glass owned me I was a quilter and an oil painter. In Nov. of 2014 I learned that I have Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis. I was advised by my pulmonologist to stop making beads immediately. He said that although he could not prove that beadmaking was responsible for my disease, inhaling the fumes and possible debis from glass making would only make things worse. Therre is no cure for IPF and I want to protect my lungs as much as I can. So I have moved on to different forms of art.
